Belvoir Hop

Belvoir Hop is a stopwatch for your attention. Instead of timing one long block of work, it records the moment you leave one task for another — each hop — so you can see how often a work session actually breaks apart, and why. Before you begin, name up to six task lanes and give each one its own shade. Set a hops-per-hour target and the length you plan the session to run. Then press start and work as usual: every time your attention moves, tap the chip for the lane you have moved into, and say what caused the hop — you chose it, a person pulled you in, or a ping did. While the session runs, a timeline ribbon draws itself across the screen, one band per lane, so the shape of the hour becomes visible as it happens. Minutes per lane stack up beside it, and a live focus score reacts to each hop: it holds when you stay in one lane and slides when the switching runs ahead of the target you set. Nothing has to be reconstructed later from memory, because the record is built in the moment the switch happens. End the session and it joins your history. Across days, that history shows the trend in fragmentation, which causes take the most from you — your own choices, the people around you, or pings — and the longest unbroken stretch you managed. One session tells you how a morning went. Twenty sessions tell you whether the switching is a habit of yours or something arriving from outside, and those two problems have very different answers. Belvoir Hop keeps the tapping cheap: one chip, one cause, and back to work. It does not score you against anyone else and it does not try to decide what good focus looks like. You set the target, the app counts the hops, and the timeline shows you what the session really was.
